A man wounded Friday morning in a shooting jumped in a car and chased the fleeing gunman in northeast Harris County.

The shooting happened about 9:20 a.m. at a house in the 13400 block of Reads Court, said Deputy Thomas Gilliland of the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

Gilliland said two men got into an argument and one of them pulled out a gun and shot the other. The gunman sped away in a tan four-door Honda Civic. The wounded man got into a car and chased him.

The chased ended about twenty minutes later in the 5700 block of McCarty when the wounded man pulled over after he saw a Houston police officer. He told the officer what had happened and said the gunman was driving away.

The wounded man was rushed to Ben Taub General Hospital. Details of his wound and condition were not released.

So far, the suspect has eluded captured. No description of the gunman was available.

Gilliland said investigators have yet determine what sparked the argument.
